Peace, Be Still

 

Peace, Be Still~~~~

O, mind of mine, that troubles all the waters

Of doubt and fear, bitterness and shame,

Let not these thoughts enter in the process

Of deciding who's at fault, and who's to blame.

 

Instead, Grant to me Your Perfect Blessing

Of “Peace, Be Still~~~~that I may always be

Faithful to the tenants of your teachings

Of unconditional love that's pure and free.

 

Peace, Be Still~~~~

O, tongue that speaks with words that are deceiving,

Or says things that are hurtful and unkind,

Quiet down these words, in Faith, believing,

That what is bound on earth, is Heaven's bind.

 

Instead, Grant me Your Perfect Blessing

Of Peace, Be Still~~~~and let my words express

The Love You gave the world in Your Redeeming

Of ALL our sin and ALL our brokenness.

 

Peace, Be Still~~~~

These hands that rise in anger,

To strike what NEVER should be struck,

Another human being who has faltered,

And finds himself down-trodden, out of luck,

 

Instead, Grant to me Your Perfect Blessing

Of Peace, Be Still~~~~~that I may always be,

Soft-spoken, kind and understanding,

Of ALL men~~~ in ALL their frailty.

 

Peace, Be Still~~~

This heart that longs to serve You

Yet, falters every step along the way,

Striving~~~ even when I know my limits

Fall short of simple goals I've set this day.

Instead Grant me Your Perfect Blessing

Of Peace, Be Still~~~~and Grace from God Above,

That I can say to all~~~ with heartfelt meaning

God Bless and remember……..U R Loved.

 

Peace, Be Still~~~~~~
